DEFENDING AMERICA FROM A CHEMICAL WEAPON: Today, President Donald J. Trump signed an Executive Order designating illicit fentanyl and its core precursor
He knows that fentanyl isn’t a nuke. He knows that. But by saying it, and by not having anyone to stop him from saying it, he gets to get away with saying it.
That doesn’t make him stupid. That makes him evil.
I’ll simplify the situation. It’s like when you’re in elementary school, and the class bully grabs your wrist, and hits you with your own hand.
Then asks “why are you hitting yourself?”
The bully knows what he’s doing. Normally this is when the teacher steps in to stop it. But what if the teacher didn’t exist? And what if instead of a classroom, it was the whole world?
The bully isn’t stupid enough to think you’re just being self destructive. The bully gets off on the fact that he’s having fun with no one to stop him.
And that’s where we are with trump. A schoolyard bully with no oversight to stop him. And oh yeah, by the way, he also dictates the biggest military on the planet. With argueably the biggest stockpile of nukes.
People forget who Bush was. They forget everything but his dumb laugh. The economy tanked under Bush. He started two wars. He ushered in the Patriot Act. Education was gutted. Tax cuts for the rich. Contracts for corporations.
Bush laid the blueprints out for people like Trump.
Yes and at this point he hasn’t done anything nearly as bad as Bush in Iraq he very probably could but i truthfully see it more likely he doesn’t and just bombs some land claims he destroyed drug operations and continues the aggression and so on he could turn it to Iraq 2.0 but so far he hasn’t. To be clear what he’s done already is terrible and he will almost certainly do more.
Give it a minute. The Bush administration hyped the idea of WMDs in Iraq for well over a year before they actually invaded.
And considering the size of the military build-up that’s been going on off the coast of Venezuela over the last several months, it’s pretty obvious what their intensions are. There is no other practical reason for that amount of ships, planes and active duty personnel, other than invasion.
The stupid! It burns!
JFC but I am so goddam tired of uttering the words “What a fuckin’ moron,” every time I read about him.
Because you’re taking him at face value.
He knows that fentanyl isn’t a nuke. He knows that. But by saying it, and by not having anyone to stop him from saying it, he gets to get away with saying it.
That doesn’t make him stupid. That makes him evil.

I don’t believe he knows a thing. The people he put in charge of his policy do know these things
And we thought G.W. Bush was an idiot… I kinda miss that guy now.
Cut that shit out. There is a DIRECT line from Reagan to Bush to Trump- and it’s American citizens’ inaction that allowed it to play out.
He was/is. Someone being even dumber doesn’t change that.
It’s the same picture
Maybe we’re just worse now.
Or more likely the modern media landscape is. I shudder to think of the bush administration with today’s connected world.
Bush was even worse than trump and unless trump turns somewhere into Iraq 2.0 he will continue to be.
People forget who Bush was. They forget everything but his dumb laugh. The economy tanked under Bush. He started two wars. He ushered in the Patriot Act. Education was gutted. Tax cuts for the rich. Contracts for corporations.

I don’t know if you heard, but there’s this place called “Venezuela”…

Maybe he is incompetent, but the administration is not. And malicious? Yes they are.
